Yeah nah. Especially not for current Python, which is quite a bit more complex and involved than it was 20 years ago.
Of course you can get some stuff done in Python on your first afternoon, but that's true for most mainstream languages. And that's nowhere near the same as actually knowing what you're doing.
- solarmist 2y agoI agree, but the context is to pick it up well enough to do coding interviews. Which I think is fair. People can pick up enough python for coding interviews pretty easily.
